 Hello,
 **To begin with, my heartfelt, boatloads of "Thank you" for having this
 wonderful solution for browsing safely & anonymously on the internet!!! It
 is such a blessing!!!**

 Coming to the issue I've been facing: It's related to downloading files
 from certain hosts. I'm listing the major ones below. The trouble is these
 hosts keep giving errors like "Invalid IP", "Wrong IP", "error 404", etc.
 while I try to download a file from there.
 Firstly, they have multiple captcha rounds and after passing through them
 (takes multiple attempts) when I finally get to the download, I keep
 getting one of the above errors. This happens even when I change the IP
 multiple times. Also, there is no way I can avoid these hosts as they are
 very popular and many files are hosted only there.

 Hosts with which I almost always face issues while downloading a file:
 https://userscloud.com
 https://uploadocean.com
 https://douploads.com
 https://upload4earn.org
 https://www.file-upload.com
 https://rapidgator.net

 Regarding my Tor browser setting, I use the default settings. No changes
 made by me at all.
 My OS is Windows 7.

 Other hosts like zippyshare etc. work very well on Tor. It's only with the
 above hosts that I find a problem.

 Please help resolve this issue of download from the above listed hosts. It
 will be a BIG help!

 Thank you again for everything!!!
